Shondra is not lucky. stop trying to diminish what that
black woman has accomplished bc you disagree with her portrayal of ONE
black character [out of the myriad that she has had]. Most of her shows
feature some sort of interracial and gay couple.

Please stop
being a pacifist; Slaves believed that their children would be slaves
regardless of evidence of other conclusions. A mindset is a mindset even
if you aren't aware of the fact that you might own that mindset
yourself.

uh huh. you can continue to maintain your opinion and i mine. not convinced by your air of supposed superiority/authority on this topic.

Tired of black women being the worlds punching bags. It's like we are under a microscope 24/7. This sh*t ain't even real.

If the show was 100% positive, niccas would say it was unrealistic.

they said this about the Cosby Show...said it was elitist and blacks dont live that way

eta: and by the way i would LOVE if she were with a black guy...and this episode they showed her leaning in that direction with Harrison so I am excited to see how that relationship develops.

Shondra makes her characters have terrible and twisted love affairs that everyone knows will end badly...it's her shtick....

It's her shtick and it is rooted in racism. Just because it is rooted in racism doesn't make it any less impacting,

even the couples that are all white? or asian and white? or lesbians and one is hispanic and the other white? im saying complicated love stories is a common plot device that she uses regardless of race.

you only notice this one bc it stars a black woman... of course as a black woman we want Kerri to be the epitome of femininity w/no flaws...

another thought: black people IMO would also have had a problem if she had cast Olivia to look like the real life character...who is lightskinned w/waist length hair and that would have been another thread.

i am not attributing the success of any woman ESPECIALLY a black woman who has written and created three successful shows for a network solely on luck. it is not my attempt to be PC but i do think it's your way of dismissing her hard work bc of this character.
